BACKGROUND: Stroke in young patients is frequently associated with a patent foramen ovale (PFO). Controversy exists over whether the PFO is a cause, a risk factor, or an incidental finding. Estimating the individualized risk of stroke recurrence has ...
Pilots' mental health has received increased attention following Germanwings Flight 9525 in 2015, where the copilot intentionally crashed the aircraft into the French Alps, killing all on board. An investigation of this incident found that the pilot...
The aim of the study was to evaluate the impact of the newly developed Similar patient search (SPS) Web Service, which supports reading complex lung diseases in computed tomography (CT), on the diagnostic accuracy of residents. SPS is an image-based ...
New production vehicles equipped with multiple screens have various functions and technologies at the user's fingertips that create informative and immersive cockpits not only for the driver but also for the passenger. Despite the growing popularity ...
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this original study was to investigate general surgeons' perceptions on the role of dual surgeon operating for high-risk, elective complex surgical procedures.
INTRODUCTION: Neck pain among rotary-wing aviators has been established as an important issue in the military community, yet no U.S. Army regulation defines exactly what cervical spine range of motion (CROM) is adequate for flight. This lack of regul...
Measuring pilot mental workload (MWL) is crucial for enhancing aviation safety. However, MWL is a multi-dimensional construct that could be affected by multiple factors. Particularly, in the context of a more automated cockpit setting, the traditiona...

This article provides an overview of the mental health challenges faced by pilots and air traffic controllers (ATCs), whose stressful professional lives may negatively impact global flight safety and security. The adverse effects of mental health dis...
Pilot behavior is crucial for aviation safety. This study aims to investigate the EEG characteristics of pilots, refine training assessment methodologies, and bolster flight safety measures. The collected EEG signals underwent initial preprocessing. ...
Even though the capability of aircraft manufacturing has improved, human factors still play a pivotal role in flight accidents. For example, fatigue-related accidents are a common factor in human-led accidents. Hence, pilots' precise fatigue detectio...
